 Great National Calamity GssEyS--


 The year 1886 played sad havoc with many prominent men of our country. q
 Many of them died without warning, passing away apparently in the full flush of life. ~
 Others were sick but a comparatively short time. We turn 10 our files and are zstonished to find that most of them died of apoplexy, of paralysis, of nerv- ous prosiTAtion, of malignant blood humor. of Bright's disease, of heart dis. ease, of kidney disease, of rheumatism or of pneumonia.
 It lis singular that most of our promi- nent men die of these disorders. Any journalist who watches the telegraph re- ports, will be astonished at the number of prominent victims of these disorders.
 Many statements have appeared in our paper with others to the effect that the diseases that carried oil so many promi- nent men in 1886, are really one disease, taking different names according tO the location of the fatal effects.
 When A valuable horse perishes, it becomes the nine days talk of the sport ing world, and yet thousands of ordinary horses are dying every day, their sggre- gate loss IS enormous, and yet their death creates no comment.
 So it is with individuals. The cause of death of prominent men creates com ment, especially when Il can be shown that one unsupported disease carries Oti most of them, and vet |" vast numbers of ordinary men and women die before their time every ..year from tbe same cause"
 It said il the blood is kept fres from uric acid, that heart disease, paralysis, nervous prostration, pDsumOnia, rheuma- tisn, and many cases of consumption would never be known. This uric acid, we are told, is the waste of the system and it is the duty of the kidneys to re' move this waste
 We are told that if the kidneys arc maintained in perfect health, the urlc, kidney, acid is kept out of the blood, and these sudden and universal diseases caused by uric acid will, ID a large measure disappear.
 But how shall this be done? IL isfolly to treat effects. If there IS any known way of getting at the cause, that way should be known 10 the public. We be- lieve that Warmers safe cure, of which 80 much has been written, and so much talked of by the public generally, IS nov recognized by impartial physic;7ns and the public as the one specific Tor such diseases.

 Because public attention hAs bseh di. rected to this great remedy by means ol advertising, some persons have not be- lieved in the remedy. We cannot see how Mir. Warner could immediately benefit the public in any other way, and his valuable specific should not be con- | demned because some nosirumf have come before the public in the same way, any more than that all doctors should be condemned because So many ot them are incompetent.
 IL is astonishing what good opinions you hear on every side, of that great remedy, and public opinion thus based upon an actual experience, has all the weight and importance of absolute truth. At this time of the year, the uric acli in the blood invites pneumonia and rheumatism, and there is not man who does not dread these monsters Of disease but be need have no fear Of them We arc told, fl he rid the blood oi the uric acid cause. These words are strong, and may sound Ike an advertisement, and be re- iected as such by minimizing people, but we believe they are the truth, and a such should be spoken by every truth loving newspaper. ....-s.
